Starting The Most Profitable Business In Thailand

Starting The Most Profitable Business In Thailand

by Jonny Blair

Thailand is a country that attracts not only many tourists, but foreigners who would like to start business there as well. Since it is difficult to find the best moneymaking industry in a foreign country, we provide here some Thailand finance advices that would be of a great help to those who are still in doubt about the type of business to invest in.

In order to know more about the most profitable area in this country for starting successful business, you need to learn more about Thai demographics. You don't have to target foreigners only, as they make up a small percentage of sales. Rather opt for a business that targets both locals and tourists, as this will ensure you will get enough customers and respectively more profits.

Invest in a business that is well-liked by local people and that does not have too much competition. For example, if you intend to open a go go bar, you will lose the local people due to the ethical and moral reasons that would not allow them to attend your bar. Targeting foreign customers only will lead to losses, as there are many other venues like this that would attract them.

You will surely get loyal Thai clients that will keep coming to you, if they like your business. If you target a foreign market only, you are unlikely to get good profits, neither to gain popularity.

Before catering your business to foreigners only, take into consideration the fact that tourism can be affected by military coups, which take place once every decade. This might greatly affect your business if it is targeting foreigners.

All these factors reveal the necessity to target local people mainly. Three main reasons prove that the food industry in Thailand is considered to be the best moneymaking business opportunity in this region: first, locals would rather eat in big groups than alone; second, the Western influence can be felt in Thailand when it comes to food too; third, it might sound strange, but there are no kitchen appliances like ovens or stoves in Thai apartments.

Thais do not have large apartments where big groups can gather, that is why they prefer to eat outside. Due to their busy lifestyle and the increasing influence of the western culture, local workers eat on the go. They now rarely consume their traditional meals that contain rice, rather opt for pastries, sandwiches and coffee for a breakfast, while they visit fast food restaurants to have a dinner with friends and family members.

So if you are thinking about opening a profitable business in Thailand, you can start your fast food restaurant, or another kind of restaurant, which can offer a comfortable atmosphere for locals to dine out. Such restaurant will surely attract tourists too, if you add some local meals that will represent Thai traditions.

You can even opt for opening mobile food trucks that will greatly benefit you in a capital and other Thai cities. They will soon gain popularity and attract both young people and workers who are too busy and would like to eat on the go.
